Pre-flop: zzzz folds. xxxx raises to 1050. yyyy goes all-in for 320. IT goes all-in for 850. xxxx is returned 200 (uncalled).
Reasoning: By calling the short-stack's all-in, I am increasing the chances that he will be busted. If we both get busted, I take 3rd. If he triples up, obviously I am in big trouble, but with the blinds where they are, I am already in dire straits...
Also, it seems most posts on this forum are on Party SnGs. Currently I have a tiny BR, and it is all on UB, so I am playing their $5.50 SnGs exclusively, trying to build back up. Are UB's SnGs regarded as similar/easier/harder than Party SnGs?
